Eyes on Africa Safaris was founded by Nevenka Lepenik and Roman Biondic. Both were originally from Slovenia and moved to Kenya in the year 2001. They were warmly welcomed by a Maasai family from Masai Mara, whom they met on their previous travel. At that time, they fell in love with Kenya and its people. They lived in a Maasai homestead for about a year, got Maasai names and the second family. They walked many of the Mara, herding cattle, learning about wildlife and getting to know the Maasai culture. They got married by the Maasai tradition, lived a very simple life in Nairobi downtown for a year after that and worked hard on their new business, Eyes on Africa Safaris. When their daughter Anna was born, they decided to move to the Kenyan coast. The business was slowly growing, and they now had an opportunity to build a cultural camp, which was their dream from the beginning. They wanted to share the beauty of Maasai culture, provide jobs in the remote Loita Hills area and encourage young Maasai to preserve cultural heritage. Maji Moto Eco Camp was born, as well as their son Max sometime later. They still live on the Kenyan coast, near their newest baby - Monkey Suites, a luxury beach retreat.
